settings

First of all I dont know how to post back in the same
segment so I cut and paste the previous

poledit.exe is not istalled and since I cannot open
settings, I cannot access control panel to install it from
CD, the OS is windows95 and I have the CD, is there any
other way to install poledit.exe from CD without going
through Control panel

When you post back, please keep your replies in the same
thread for ease of
tracking.

The policy editor (poledit.exe) may already be installed
and if so, go to
the second part:

To install System Policy Editor (poledit.exe), go to
Control Panel,
Add/Remove Programs, click the Windows Setup tab and click
Have Disk. In
the Install From box, click Browse and browse to the
Tools\Reskit\Netadmin\Poledit folder on the W98 CD.
Highlight poledit.inf
and click OK twice. In the Have Disk screen, check the
System Policy Editor
box and click Install.

To enable the registry tools, open the Policy Editor,
click on File and Open
Registry, double click Local User, click the + sign on W98
System, click the
+ on Restrictions and remove the mark from Disable
Registry.... Ok your way
out.

I am posting back about the problem to enable setting and
run. I cannot open regedit.exe either, even though I am
logged on as administrator


Open regedit.exe to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion
\ Policies
\Explorer

In the right pane, delete these two entries: NoSetFolders
and NoRun

If regedit has been disabled, post back.

I have been newly appointed and the person who was
previously working left and my problem is I want to add a
new network printer and when I click Start button the
Settings and Run menu is not seen and also I can not
access the property of the My Computer either. The
previous guy disabled all that to prevent the users is
from messing around since its a multiuser computer. I
even
loggen in with administrator privilage and still I cant
do
anything, does anybody have an idea about this, how to
enable those
